In the hotel.

The three of them came over again to find Tsunade.

In the previous threat from Ayane, the three of them were not in a hurry to leave, even if they knew the surprise attack plan on the frontline battlefield, it could be said that it was a complete failure, but the Hokage did not have an order, and they could not act on their own, so they could only send the news back to Konoha first, and it would be decided by the high-level.

And they also got the news that one of the three ninjas was also captured, and now I'm afraid that he has been imprisoned by the ninjas of the country of demons, and he will be interrogated.

In other words, every second that Jiraiya stays in the prison of the Oni Country will be in danger of exposing Konoha secrets.

The top priority is to think about how to get Jiraiya out of prison, not only because of Jiraiya's secrets, but also because he is a disciple of the Hokage, one of the most powerful candidates for the five generations of Hokage in the future.

If he died on the front line, it would be fine, but if he didn't die, the village would probably try his best to save him.

However, the problem in front of him is not only the extremely strong military power of the Ghost Country, but also the fact that Konoha in the Ghost Country can be said to be unfamiliar with life, and if he acts rashly, he will only startle the snake.

"What are you three imps doing again?"

In the living room of the hotel, Tsunade asked with a bored expression, looking rather irritable.

And the three of Nara Shikahisa expressed their understanding, the relationship between the three ninjas is like siblings, and they are also imprisoned in the prison of the country of ghosts, and it is strange that Tsunade can be in a good mood.

"Tsunade-sama, we'd like to ask about Jiraiya-sama."

Lu Jiu said with a bitter smile.

No way, this is a death order from the top of the village, and they urgently need Tsunade to prove their position before they dare to judge and make the next trade-off.

In the case of Konoha now lacking top combat power, the three shinobi, who have been wandering outside, has become a headache for the village.

"Wouldn't you just go and visit yourself?"

Tsunade waved his hand.

Shizune walked over at this time, brought a few cups of tea and put them in front of Lu Jiu and Tsunade, and then stepped aside, silent.

The three of them said 'thank you', but they were not in the mood for tea.

"We tried, but neither the witch nor the military agreed to our request to visit the prison."

Lu Jiu said helplessly.

The military took a hard line and said that no one was allowed to visit the prison without an order from their superiors.

On the witch side, there is a problem to find the previous generation of witches to solve.

However, is there any inevitable relationship between visiting the prison and the witch of the previous generation?

Although it is a prevarication, it is too deceptive.

However, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and in other people's territory, once they cross the line, they will inevitably get in.

The country of ghosts is in the midst of a carnival to defeat the country of wind, one of the five great powers, and at this time, Shikaku doesn't want to add trouble to Konoha at this time.

"That stinky boy is too stingy. This kind of request is not allowed. ”

Tsunade muttered, seemingly rather dissatisfied.

Shikaku knew who Tsunade was pointing to, but he didn't say anything.

"Don't worry, Jiraiya is not safe now, and he is not being interrogated, just imprisoned. Other than that, there is no difference from ordinary prisoners. ”

Tsunade took a deep breath and replied.

Shikaku nodded, his judgment was right, Tsunade really has the ability to visit Jiraiya, and he will not be fooled by the witches and the military of the Oni Country like them.

Although the relationship between Tsunade and Chiba Shiraishi may not be as harmonious as before, after all, there is a 'master-apprentice' feeling, and in this regard, it is already the maximum to allow Tsunade to visit the prison alone.

As long as Tsunade doesn't touch the opponent's bottom line.

Once the bottom line is touched, thinking of the fate of those thousands of sand ninja on the frontline battlefield, even if it is his own teacher, I am afraid that he will not be merciful at that time, but will deal with it decisively.

It's just that the prison visit has not touched the bottom line, it is just a spontaneous behavior of human nature.

"In other words, under the interrogation of the enemy, there is still a chance that the Jiraiya-sama will expose Konoha's secrets."

Tsunade nodded unhappily and did not refute.

It seems that Tsunade's mood is gradually deteriorating, and there is a faint atmosphere of impatience, Shikaku also knows that there is no need to ask any more, he just needs to understand that Jiraiya is not in danger for the time being.

He took a letter from his bosom and placed it on the tea table.

"Tsunade-sama, this is a letter from Hokage-sama, and he needs your support."

After Lu Jiu finished speaking, he lowered his head and drank tea leisurely with Hai Yi and Ding Za.

Tsunade looked suspicious, picked up the envelope, opened it, opened the letter, and quickly skimmed through it.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but after reading the content of the letter, Tsunade's face became very gloomy, even a little scary, and Shizune, who was standing behind him, held his breath and didn't dare to look at the letter.

After being silent for about half a minute, Tsunade stared at the three of Lu Jiu who had their heads down expressionlessly, and said:

"Let them decide for themselves, I haven't been involved in the village's decision-making for many years. Whatever the outcome, I will respect the wishes of the village. ”

Lu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, but also sighed faintly in his heart.

"In that case, we'll get back to Hokage-sama as soon as possible, so we won't disturb your rest, Tsunade-sama, take your leave."

Shikaku got up from the couch, and then walked away briskly with Hai Yi and Ding Za.

◎

Konoha, Hokage Building, Conference Room.

Hizai held the letter sent back by Lu Jiu in his hand, and was silent for a long time, sitting there without saying a word.

"Hi-slash, how do you reply?"

Advisor Mito Menyan asked eagerly, and so did Koharu, who was also a consultant, and Tuanzang sat calmly on the side, his eyes subconsciously aimed towards the sun, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes.

Hizai put down the letter, glanced at the three old friends, and said slowly: "Regarding whether to revoke the wanted warrants of Chiba Shiraishi and others, he let us make our own decisions and obey all the orders of the village. ”

"That's a deceptive answer, isn't it?"

Koharu frowned.

"Yes, the three of them heard it with their own ears."

Hizaki closed his eyes and sighed.

It is said that it is following the decision of the village, but in fact it is just an act of avoidance.

Failure to take a stand is a silent opposition.

The opposition is naturally not the removal of the wanted documents of Chiba Shiraishi and others, but the safety of Jiraiya's life.

Because at the end of the day, it's a deal with the country of ghosts.

Only by agreeing to some harsh demands from the other party will the Oni Country side release Jiraiya, and only give Konoha a few days to think about it.

Revoke the wanted warrant and recognize the legal status of the Uchiha and Hyuga clans in the country of ghosts.

And handed over the ninjutsu and literature collection after the extinction of the Konoha Uchiha clan.

Otherwise, before the Five Shadows Conference, the Oni Nation will secretly execute Jiraiya.

Even though he knew that this was a threat, it did hit Konoha on the soft underbelly at the moment.

Rizag glanced at the three of them, and then realized that the three of them had wrinkles on their faces, and they were old men in their sixties.

Once they are too old to fight, or even attend various major meetings, it is difficult to predict what kind of chaos Konoha will face.

For the development of Konoha, he has devoted his whole life to maintaining the balance of all forces in the village, so that the village tends to an environment of stable development.

But when it comes to the issue of heirs, Hichisha somewhat understands the difficult situation of the three generations of Iwakushi Village, Tsuchikage Onoki.

At their age, the issue of heirs has to be carefully considered.

"And what does she mean by that? Konoha is a precious thing left by the first adult, doesn't she cherish it at all? ”

Zhuan Xiaochun was a little dissatisfied.

To be honest, Chiba Shiraishi's oppression made her very uncomfortable as a consultant.

As the head of the five ninja villages, Konoha was forced to come here by a group of traitorous ninjas, and there was nothing he could do about them, which made Zhuan Xiaochun feel aggrieved and angry.

"Isn't that something very clear? She tends to rescue Jiraiya, and the woman is really a bunch of sensual guys. ”

Danzang interjected at this time.

But I have to say that Tsunade's intentions made him feel tricky.

Originally, they were still debating whether to agree to Chiba Shiraishi's request, revoke the wanted warrant, and return the Uchiha clan's ninjutsu and literature classics, so as to save Jiraiya's life.

Now it seems that it is impossible to say no.

Even if he didn't like an emotional woman like Tsunade, he had to admit that her great contribution to Konoha and her importance to Konoha at this time.

He can also not save himself, and he can forcefully reject the unreasonable demands of the Oni Country and let the Oni Country deal with it, but he can't ignore Tsunade's position.

Tsunade, who seems to be weak, is the most influential of the three ninjas.

"Tuan Zang, I don't agree with your words."

As a woman's transfer to Koharu refuted.

You're not emotional, you're just stupid. Tuan Zang glanced at Koharu and said in his heart.

Zhuan Koharu and Mito Menyan, constantly jumping sideways on his and Hito's position, as a consultant, he has no ideas of his own at all, just following the trend, and has not made the slightest progress for decades.

The greed for power is not wrong, but the mistake is incompetence.

This kind of incompetent waste, when he becomes the Hokage, must be abolished.

The most suitable advisor in his heart is Nara Shikaku, the current patriarch of the Nara clan.

"From this point of view, the results of the meeting have been very clear, there are still three days before the Five Shadows Conference is held, so make a decision as soon as possible. You don't want to end up betraying your family, Sun. ”

Danzou saw Hizao's hesitation.

I want to save Jiraiya, but I don't want to revoke the wanted warrant, and I don't want to hand over the legacy of the Konoha Uchiha clan.

But there's no such cheap thing in the world.

He believed that if he didn't take a firm stand at this point and forced Hichiha to make a decision, Hizaki would definitely say something like 'let me think again' just like he did with the Uchiha.

But there are only three days left before the Five Shadows Conference, and if you don't make a decision as soon as possible, just repeating this kind of meaningless meeting back and forth will only kill Jiraiya, and it will also make Tsunade have a pimple in his heart and cause a rift with Konoha.

The Uchiha extermination clan is already panicked in the village, and if the remaining three shinobi have problems again, it will not be as simple as panic.

Koharu and Mito Menyan didn't express their opinions, and sat silently on the sidelines, as if waiting for Hitoshi to make a decision.

Because this kind of thing is different from the problem of the Uchiha, which belongs to the internal strife of Konoha, and with Itachi as a ninja who firmly stands on the side of the village, they can act according to their own wishes.

And this time it was the pressure from the outside, and those rebels would not give them time to discuss more.

Before the Five Shadows Conference, if you don't agree to the request of the group of traitors, you can only wait to collect the corpse for Jiraiya, or you don't even have a chance to collect the corpse, and send it directly to the operating table for dissection.

"I see, I'll take care of it. After the arrangement, I will go to the Five Shadows Conference. ”

Hizai closed his eyes and sighed, acquiescing to Danzo's statement.

If Chiba Shiraishi's oppression made him breathless, then Tsunade's position was the last straw that overwhelmed his heart, and he had to compromise on this matter.

"Where's the Guardian?"

"Just the three of Pig, Deer and Butterfly, let them go to the Iron Country in advance, and then dispatch a detachment from the dark department to come out of the dark department."

Hearing Rizao's arrangement, the three of them nodded and did not say anything against it.

◎

A day later, early in the morning.

Port.

A rather luxurious ship has been heading towards the shore, and with Yakura are the two shinobi of Fog Hidden Village, Qing and Ghost Lantern Full Moon.

As the guard on the bright side of the water shadow this time, it is enough, and the guards in the dark are a detachment of dark ninjas, plus the blue and ghost light full moon, a total of eighteen elite ninjas.

Coupled with the deterrent power of Mizukage himself, there must be no people who don't have long eyes to come over and make trouble.

The ghost lamp full moon glanced overhead, and the annoying sunlight was penetrating the thin mist, making him subconsciously drink the water in the water cup with a straw to replenish his body.

Behind him, there was a strangely shaped ninja knife.

Twin Knife Flounder.

One of the seven ninja knives that have been passed down from generation to generation in Wuyin Village.

Now it's in his custody as a member of the Ghost Lantern Clan.

In addition, before he found a suitable knife owner, the blunt knife and dou cut that also lost its owner were also kept by him, and they were usually stored in the psychic scroll, and they would only be used during battle.

"Doesn't it matter to your body, full moon?"

Qing asked.

The ghost lamp full moon glanced at Qing, bared a mouthful of fangs and smiled: "It's okay, just hurry up and get to the Iron Country, it's a country of ice and snow, it shouldn't make me seriously dehydrated." ”

Qing nodded, the ghost lamp full moon does have this characteristic.

It's not just the full moon of the ghost lantern, most of the people of the ghost lantern clan have this characteristic and often need to replenish water.

I don't know if the dead second-generation Mizukage Ghost Lantern Phantom Moon Lord also has a hobby.

"Having said that, it's the first time I've participated in such a high-level meeting, the Five Shadows Conference, is there anything important to discuss?"

Ghost Lantern Full Moon asked.

As the ghost lantern family of Wuyin Village, each generation is a generation of outstanding people, which can be called the cornerstone of Wuyin Village.

Especially during the reign of the second generation of the Water Shadow Ghost Lantern Phantom Moon, the connection between the Ghost Lantern Clan and the Fog Hidden Village was further deepened, and the Ghost Lantern Clan also made the Ghost Lantern Clan revered in the Fog Hidden Village.

However, even after becoming the bodyguard of the fourth generation of Mizukage, he was not interested in attending any meetings, but continued to hone the fit between himself and the ninja sword.

When he was very young, he had been exposed to seven ninja knives, and his adaptability was very good, but at that time, because of the growth of the Blood Mist Sect, even the Ghost Lantern Clan maintained a neutral attitude and did not dare to offend this group of madmen too much.

As a result, his coveting of the seven ninja swords also subsided.

But for the cultivation of sword skills, it is carried out all the time.

He didn't pay much attention to the recent events in the ninja world.

Aoi knew that Full Moon was a collector who was extremely obsessed with ninja swords, so he replied, "Deal with some matters in the Land of Wind and the Land of Demons, and when the time comes, it will be up to Mizukage-sama's will." ”

"Oni no Kuni, ......"

Full Moon narrowed her eyes, nodded, and said no more.

Soon, the ship docked to the shore.

Yakura said to the two people standing behind him muttering, "The ship has arrived, hurry up and leave, if you are late, it will be a little troublesome." ”

Aowa Full Moon prepares to follow Yakura on the ship.

Just as the full moon was about to go up, Yakura suddenly took out two scrolls from his arms and threw them to the full moon.

With the help of the full moon, he looked at Yakura suspiciously.

"Mizukage-sama, this is ......"

"Long knives, sewing needles, explosive knives, droplets, because I can't find a suitable one, I'll leave it to you for the time being. Anyway, the two blood mist supporters, Kuri Hail Kushimaru and Muri Shihachi, have long since died. ”

"That's a great greeting gift, Mizukage-sama."

Full Moon smiled, tucked the two scroll treasures into his arms, and carefully treasured them.

Yakura didn't say anything and stepped onto the boat.

◎

When Yakura set off for the Land of Iron by boat, Shiraishi was ready to go out at about the same time.

At noon, Shiraishi arrived in the territory of the Bird Country with Ayane and Ako, and after a short pause in a small town, he continued on his way.

However, since there was still plenty of time, Shiraishi just maintained his normal pace of progress and headed towards the Land of Iron.

For Shiraishi, it is enough for the guards on the bright side to have Ayane and Akako, while the guards on the dark side are the shadow dancers hiding in his shadow.

In the event of a battle, the rest of the clones can be summoned together at any time to fight together, so there is no need to increase the size of the guards, it will only look bloated.

Moreover, it would be even better if it could leave the Five Shadows outside of Yakura, there are not too many good ninjas in the country of ghosts, and only rely on the illusion of two or three people to support them.

However, Konoha and Shayin, who have already been fooled once, will no longer easily believe the information that the country of ghosts has put on the surface.

After all, this kind of trap, pit once is already the limit.

As for whether Yun Yin and Yan Yin will be fooled, it has to be said separately.

"Shiraishi-kun."

At this time, Ayane suddenly turned her head and said.

Shiraishi nodded, and there were a large number of figures around him, there were more than twenty people, each of whom had a chakra reaction in his body, and there was no doubt that he was a ninja.

"Earth Escape, Ground Stone Thorn!"

As a shout resounded through the forest, a large number of sharp stone pillars rose from the ground and stabbed towards the three of Shiraishi.

"Wow!"

Suddenly stabbed by the stone pillar, the young man woke up from his sleep at once, he didn't have time to dodge, his body rolled out crookedly, and his immature little face was full of confusion, not knowing what was happening.

Both Shiraishi and Ayane dodged the beginning, ignoring the situation on Ako's side.

In a state of sleep, the vigilance is indeed poor.

But you also have to stay asleep in order to build up more strength.

The surrounding trees were already filled with figures, dressed in uniform and wearing red tengu masks on their faces, dressed like samurai and ninja.

"It's really two big fish, then, our brother will eat the bounty worth hundreds of millions of taels!"

As the leader gave the order, one figure after another rushed down and rushed towards the three of Shiraishi.

Without hesitation, Akako also reacted, these people are the villains who attacked him, his father and mother, and they must be eliminated!

Although the brain's ability to think is always a beat slower, after figuring things out, the speed of the child is driven to the maximum horsepower, and he disappears from the spot all of a sudden.

"Gone!? How can it be! ”

I didn't see how it was moving at all, and the eyes of the besieging enemies widened.

Suddenly, a scream rang out.

Blood splatters.

Akako jumped into the air, mercilessly raised his bandaged spear with one hand, struck an enemy in the face, and fell to the ground with a loud bang, shattering bones and flesh beyond recognition.

"Water Escape, Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

A huge waterspout swept into Akako, sending him into the dragon-shaped current, crushing him to pieces.

Poof!

The spear passed through the chest, making the ninjutsu performer unwilling to fall.

"What's the matter with this little ghost? Is this all right? ”

Looking at the Akako who had penetrated the water dragon unscathed, the ninjas who surrounded him were all shocked.

However, the gun in the child's hand did not stop killing with their terror.

In a short time, Akako was surrounded by the corpses of ninjas, and the trees, grass, and ground were all smeared with blood, as if they had been eaten by wild beasts.

The ninja leader wearing the tengu mask had a flash of vision and chose to flee backwards.

"Hey-"

The young man kicked his feet, spread his hands lightly, and pursued him extremely quickly.

Then the sound of the wire pulling came out, and a large number of kunai flew down, and Akako tripped up, but still relied on his extraordinary agility and easily escaped Kunai's assassination.

Bang!

Hitting something solid, a pair of arms came from behind, lifting his body up, firmly clasping his neck with both hands, and increasing the force, trying to strangle him alive.

"Stinky little ghost! Ninjutsu doesn't seem to work for you, so you'll suffocate to death! ”

The ninja leader, who locked Akako's neck from behind, laughed coldly.

Ako tilted her head, and under the surprised gaze of the ninja leader, she held the spear with both hands, the tip of which was aimed at her body.

Without hesitation, stab yourself in the body.

The ninja leader's body stiffened, his eyes flashed with disbelief, and he felt his heart pierced by a spear, and his body fell down, losing his breath.

Akako slowly pulled out his spear, and surprisingly, there was not the slightest trace of blood on the bandage of the painted eyeball, as if it had been licked clean by something.

Akako stood up from the corpse of the ninja leader, patted the dust on his body, the blood hole in his chest had been restored, and he ran back the way he came.

Shiraishi and Ayane were examining the ninja corpses on the ground, glancing at the tengu masks on the faces of the ninjas.

Shiraishi said, "It's someone from the Tengu group, and it seems that they are here for our bounty. ”

The Tengu Regiment is a large mercenary group in the underground black market, which is quite famous in the underground black market and is very popular with some black market merchants.

"It's really self-defeating."

Ayane snorted.

Shiraishi shook his head helplessly and said: "The more famous and influential a person is, the easier it is to provoke enemies, and countless assassinations will follow. Let the Xuan Ape people deal with this kind of thing, they are experts in this area. ”

Ayane nodded, there was no need to waste time for the mercenary group.

Shiraishi saw the naked man running back, didn't say anything, and set off again.
